Fittest Executives Lead by Example

Personally, I think it’s imperative that people take care of their health.  But finding the time can seem impossible for business owners.  Take a look at a competition that lists that Fittest Executives and learn from them.  Many people use their business as an excuse as to why they can’t be in shape.  Other business owners use fitness to make sure they do their job to the best of their abilities.  Which one describes you?

I’ll be on the radio between 1 and 2 Central today to talk about how busy business owners can be healthy and successful.  Listen Live

Being healthy and in shape as a business owner can increase your energy, improve your attitude, decrease stress, decrease you number of sick days, and inspire your employees to live a healthy lifestyle.  You have the power to control the atmosphere of your workplace and the health of your employees.  At a time when everyone is cutting cost, how can you improve your bottom line?

Studies show that having employees who are overweight or obese, cost the company significantly over a one year period of time.

You have the power to change that though.  By setting a good example and incorporating a fitness program into your business, you will see a return on your money greater than the amount you invest into it.  The amount of return you can expect to make could be anywhere from 2:1 to 4:1, depending on the program.  So if you think fitness is a waste of time, or it’s not worth the money you put into it, you might want to reconsider.
